To all whom it may concern.'

Be it known that I, IVILLIAM SANDERS, a citizen of the United States,residing at Jackson, in the county of Madison and State ot Tennessee,have invented certain new and useful Improvements .in Churns; and I dohereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact descriptionof the invention, such will enable others skilled in the art to which itappertains to make. and use the same, reference being had to theaccompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures of referencemarked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

The invention comprises various details oi. construction andcombinations and arrangements of parts which will be hereinafter fullydescribed and then speciically defined in the appended claim.

I illustrate my invention in the accompanying drawings, in which Figurel is a perspective View of my improved churn, and F ig. 2 is a sectionalview longitudinally and vertically through the churn.

Reference now being had to the details of the drawings by letter, Adesignates a bail-shaped bar, preferably of hollow material, which isfastened to the base B in any suitable manner, the upright portions ofsaid member A being provided with buffers C and adapted to take up thevibration incident to the swinging churn coming in contact therewith.

The churn body, designated by letter D,

is preferably of cylindrical shape and made preferably of tin or othersuitable metal. A lid E is provided with a flange which lits over oneend of the churn and is held tightly by means ol? the clamping members Fin which apertures are formed for the reception of the rods IIwhich haveheads at corresponding ends and the opposite ends threaded for thereception of the winged nuts I, thereby affording secure means forholding the lid tight against the body portion of the churn. In order tomake the lid secure to prevent any liquid leaking, suite able gasketsare preferably interposed between the lid and body portion of the churn.

A handle, designated by letter K, is fastened to the body portion of thechurn and each end of the bar out of which the handle is formed isturned into a hook K. The endless wire or cable N, which passes over thehorizontally disposed portion of the baileshaped member and catchesunderneath said hooks, thus forming a secure means for the suspension ofthe churn and allowing the latter to swing freely.

lVhat I claim to be new is A swinging churn comprising a body por tion,a handle fixed thereto and having its ends formed into inverted hooks, asupporting bar, cables mounted thereon and engagmg said hooks andforming means for allowing the churn to swing.

In testimony whereof I hereunto allx my signature 1n the presence of twowitnesses.
